GDP has almost recovered to its pre-crisis levels. Strong economic performance has led our forecast for economic growth to be revised upwards to 5.2%. Q2 2021 saw an increase in private expenditure, a renewed growth in services and strong private investment activity. Exports and trade-oriented industrial sectors have already grown beyond 2019 levels. Inflation has stabilised and is not likely to exceed 2% in 2021. With a surge in infections, the slow progress of vaccination is a risk factor for the winter.
